PR Friday, 8 Mar 2013

It’s PR Friday! Here’s some media from last week’s Arnold NAPF Raw Challenge to get you inspired over the weekend.

AC’s log is consistently the most popular on the site. This comes as no surprise once you see his intensity on the platform and his constant interaction with his fans. Check out his write-up on the Arnold (there’s a surprise ending), and this video of his lifts:

Mike B also had a good meet at the Arnold and did a write-up on his training log. Check out his video here, and subscribe to his often-updated YouTube channel while you’re at it:

Matt Nolan finished second in his class and damn near pulled 733lbs. What do you think he’ll hit at Nats?

Big Chris has been real, real busy since the Arnold, so I haven’t seen any log updates or a video of his lifts…but at least he squats deeply:

Marc wasn’t extremely pleased with his meet, but I was happy to see that he finished strong, posted some great stories about the Arnold, and perhaps most importantly, got a stellar picture of the crew with the legendary Ed Coan. I’m jelly. You jelly?

 

Matt Baller hit a new IPF World Record bench…twice. Here’s the bigger of the two:

Jennifer Thompson blew us all away again with a very impressive meet, including a PR squat and dead, and chipping her own World Record bench to 137kg/302lbs (@ the 2:00 mark in the video). Amazing.

USAPL’s website has been updated to include the Arnold results, along with a database of 2012 Lifter Rankings. Check it out.

In the Pro Deadlift challenge, Ian Bell won for the THIRD consecutive year, this time by less than 1 Wilks point. Dece.

How’d your week go? Tell us about your PRs and put up a video. Just copy/paste the simple youtube address in your comment for it to show up properly formatted. Just so: “http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoTYAlMy57I”  So easy, a meathead could do it.
